Austin CyberKnife

Austin CyberKnife treats several different types of malignant and benign tumors throughout the body using CyberKnife technology.

The CyberKnife is an advanced robotic technology that provides stereotactic radiosurgery and stereotactic body radiation therapy. During these procedures, precisely targeted, high-dose radiation beams are delivered to tumors throughout the body without sedation or incision while radiation exposure to healthy tissue around a tumor is minimized. CyberKnife treatment is painless and is completed in five or fewer procedures. Lung tumors and brain tumors are frequently treated diseases, as well as trigeminal neuralgia, a painful nerve disorder. Most insurance plans and Medicare are accepted. Austin CyberKnife is a department of University Medical Center Brackenridge, a member of the Seton Healthcare Family.
